COMET VALE

During the quarter, considerable focus has been placed on the divestment of Labyrinth Gold Project in Canada, however targeting and planning of exploration activities is well underway at Comet Vale.

In the previous quarter, LRL announced the commitment to refocus exploration activities at Comet Vale Project near Menzies, Western Australia. The project is a joint venture project between Labyrinth (51%) and Sand Queen Gold Mines Pty Ltd (49%).

During 2023, LRL had begun the first genuine surface exploration project for 15 years, despite the project hosting extensive high-grade gold, copper and nickel laterite. The 18 hole RC drilling program took place in April 2023 targeting the down dip extensions of the Sand George Lodes with favourable results6. Just prior to this, an updated Mineral Resource Estimate was completed on the Comet Vale Underground (‘UG’) and Open Pit (‘OP’) historic resource (see Table 1 and 2)7.
